David, I can't help but to feel like you are making a REALLY good point. CF only has a few outspoken advocates. Popular ones that I can think of I can count on one hand.

It's definitely not "cool" among the startup culture, which seems to drive a lot of the language popularity.

So it needs lots of "Show HN: Cool thing I made with Cold Fusion" and first comment lots of details as to why CF was totally the right toolkit.
